Cannot open Excel files with the Excel app through Dropbox on iPhone

Cannot open Excel files with the Excel app through Dropbox on iPhone

I use the Dropbox app on my iphone. I used to be able to open excel files in excel by using “open with - excel”. But now it sends me to a screen saying Microsoft Integration wants permission. I hit the Allow button (the only other option available is “learn more”) and it just takes me back to the list of files in Dropbox. I can never get past that. I used to be able to open them from the Excel app as well, but not now. What has changed and what can I do?

I have the same problem on my iPad, but not on smartphone that works on Android, so maybe the problem is Apple, (again) 🙄

Need more support?
